The Four Cs

Diamond Rarity

Diamond

At Helzberg Diamonds, we pride ourselves on having extremely strict standards for diamond quality - especially when it comes to the cut of our diamonds. We stand behind every diamond that goes into every piece of our jewelry, ensuring that it lives up to the standards we have upheld since 1915.

The basics of diamonds has always come down to the 4Cs - cut, color, clarity and carat weight.

Cut: The cut of a diamond affects how well a diamond returns light back to the viewer's eye. A well cut diamond will appear brilliant and fiery.

Color: A diamond's color is a measure of the stone's whiteness, meaning it is actually measuring the lack of color a diamond has.

Clarity: The clarity of a diamond refers to the presence (or lack) of imperfections. Generally, the more imperfections (or inclusions) a diamond has, the lower the clarity.

Carat Weight: A carat specifically measures a diamond's weight. Because of its rarity, one larger diamond is more valuable than a combination of smaller diamonds.

It's getting hard to find diamonds set in yellow gold, so I was pleased to get this. The diamonds are lovely and well matched as always, and the modified chevron shape is flattering and different. Great accent ring.

My husband proposed to me using his great grandmother's wedding ring. It is beautiful! The only problem was it didn't have a matching band. We found this band and it fit perfectly to the contour of his great grandmother's ring. We bought one for the wedding and I can't wait for the occasion he picks to purchase a second one for the other side!

I shopped all over the stores at the mall looking for the perfect anniversary band to go with my engagement and wedding ring. I didn't want something that was too flashy to take away from my exsisting ring. I went into Helzberg diamonds. I explained what I was looking for. The first lady to help me wasn't to sure so she asked the manager. She came over and knew exactly what I wanted. When she put this ring next to my others it complimented it so well even my husband was amazed. Needless to say we both fell in love with it and bought it immediately. It has made my wedding and engagement ring look beautiful without taking away from it. Thank you so much.
